Abstract

The application of geospatial technology in the field of hydrological modeling plays is a crucial role in the proper management of water resources from global to local levels. SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) is a comprehensive, physically based semi-distributed river basin model. The spatial distribution of the eco-hydrological components was analyzed in the Brahmani River basin, Odisha, India. The sub-watershed-based hydrological parameters were calculated [Evapotranspiration (ET), Potential Evapotranspiration (PET), Surface Runoff (SURQ), Soil Water (SW), and Water Yield (WYLD)] for 15 years from 2000 to 2014. The spatial distribution results show that minimum and maximum ETs were 111.73 mm and 1311.31 mm for the years 2014 and 2010. The results also show that maximum PET (2378.15 mm) was shown in the sub-watershed no. 78 and 100 for the year of 2009. The sub-watershed-based spatial distribution results show that the upstream part of the river basin comes under less ET compared to downstream. For the river discharge, daily streamflow value was used from June to December of 2008 to 2010 data for model calibration and 2011 to 2012 data for validation purpose. The spatial statistical indicators were used for the accuracy of the powerful model. Besides, the results show that streamflow increased in the monsoon season and decreased in the non-monsoon season. Moreover, output maps provide an appropriate guideline for the planning of detailed water resources planning and management related projects.
